Examination

After I have decided that I have to find my purpose of life, I think it’s the time to initiate the process. As far as my limited knowledge goes, it can be done by examining all my thoughts and activities, and see which one of them facilitates my progress on the path, and which doesn’t. This identification and recognition will further allow me to make a decision about which behavioral practices to keep, which to discard, and which to start anew; for example, the hobby of writing. I think I started writing about five – six years ago. But I did not take this habit  very seriously. People told me if I could develop it and become a skilled writer, there is no dearth of money. Even then I did not devote myself to develop this skill.

I think everything has its appropriate time to happen. As I did not take this seriously before, I am doing so now. It of course is the moment of extreme happiness for me. I am going to do which I did not do till date. I am going to examine why I write, what I want to write about, how can I do so, what are the sources I have that facilitate me in writing, how can I gather more resources, which distractions keep me away from exercising my hobby of writing and who are my audience. There are many such relevant questions that have filled my mind at present.

This kind of processing has never happened with me. I have never done this kind of questioning with myself. And this seems to be an off shoot of what is going on within me, the self realization self discovery and all such stuff, and thus this examination.
